How do you apply "Heel No Pain"?

We blink about 15 times each minute, without thinking about it. The brain controls many actions such as this automatically. Blinking spreads taers across the eyes. This keeps …the eyes clean and stops them from drying out. Tears keep the cornea at the front of the eye damp (MORE)

Although present success may cloud the judgement of fans everywhere, celebrities can have pasts much gloomier than the Hollywood sunshine they're in now. The following ten bad… boys are no exception, as they've done time for some shocking past crimes.Wahlberg paved himself a pretty bumpy road to success before beginning his music career as Marky Mark. At only 14 years old, the current Hollywood actor dropped out of school to do what was most important to him--joining a gang. During his bad boy years, he collected drug and violence offenses, and was even charged with attempted murder. He got off lucky, however, and only served 45 days of his initial two-year sentence.When looking back on this Hollywood actor's rough and tumble past, one can truly see a connection between his life and the tough-as-nails characters he has played. Trejo has a drug history which started with marijuana at the early age of eight and quickly spiraled out of control when he reached his teens. He spent a whopping 11 years in and out of jail for drugs, robbery, and murder charges. It wasn't until a three-month stay in solitary confinement during a five-year sentence that he decided to turn his life around.This Hollywood sex icon, with an astonishing resume of roles, has a past which is pretty rough around the edges. In 1996, while high on a controlled substance, the "Iron Man" trespassed onto a neighbor's property and was caught getting his beauty rest on a bed in their home. He served right around a year for this incident, which was sandwiched between many other drug offenses and jail time.Slater's breakout role in the 1988 film Heathers may not have been such a stretch on his acting abilities, as this star started showing violent tendencies for a while after the movie's release. His first criminal offense in 1989 involved drunk driving and assault, and his second involved attempting to board a plane with a gun in tow. The last two incidents involved violence and sexual harassment, but the longest stint Slater ever had in jail for his offenses was a measly three months.The Prince of Darkness has a wild past which those who aren't fans may find shocking. Osbourne once bit the head off a live bat during a concert performance, making him no stranger to strange acts. One 1982 incident that got him some time behind bars is equally ridiculous, and involved the celebrity urinating on an Alamo monument in Texas while wearing Sharon Osbourne's dress. This head scratching crime lead to an arrest and a decade of time spent banned from the city of San Antonio.The star of 1990s sitcom Home Improvement started out on the opposite end of his character's suburban, responsible fatherhood. In 1978, the actor was busted with a whopping 1.4 pounds of cocaine. He was charged with drug trafficking, ratted out many of his drug-dealing colleagues, and luckily had to spend just two years behind bars before changing his career in the direction of Hollywood.Bad boy rapper 50 Cent has all the "street cred" he brags about, and the time he had to pay confirms his crimes. One incident stems from his seedy past, when he made money dealing drugs. In 1994, he was caught red handed during a deal with an NYPD undercover cop. A month later, police found crack, heroin, and even a starter gun in his home. His 19 year old age may have aided him in lessening his sentence, as he spent seven months in a youth shock incarceration boot camp instead of spending time in jail.This British star, who has acted since the early 1990s, came pretty close to starting off with a murky reputation. In 1995, the star was caught getting frisky with a high-class prostitute in Hollywood. After being caught in the act, Grant did two years time on probation, was forced to take part in AIDS seminar, and had to fork over a fine for his criminal offense. Lucky for him, he was able to shape up and become a Hollywood success.Although it's tough to imagine Hollywood family man Will Smith with a criminal record, it definitely exists. Back in 1989, he expressed a violent streak which got him an arrest and a night in jail before charges were dropped. Although Smith wasn't physically involved in the violence, it was he who ordered his bodyguard to attack record promoter William Hendricks, whom he was in an intense argument with. The incident occurred days after scoring his first grammy, and luckily the star changed lanes on the path to success after.This Rolling Stones singer, whose popularity still runs deep, had a past all too similar to countless other rockstars. The 1960s were a time for experimentation and, let's face it, drug use, and Jagger and pals were no exception to this scene. He ended up with an arrest and a night behind bars after police raided bandmate Keith Richard's Sussex home in 1967 and found illegal amphetamine pills.(MORE)

Your eyes provide your brain with a constant stream of information about the outside world. With all these responsibilities it is no wonder your eyes can wear out from time to… time. Consider some reasons your eyes are tired, and find out how you can work toward giving your eyes some rest.Your eyes are tired when you do not given them proper rest. Your eyes are at work even during your slumber in the rapid eye movement stage of sleep. Clinical reports indicate a relationship between sleep disorders and the development of certain eye problems, such as glaucoma and papilledema. Less serious conditions that arise from consistently inadequate sleep include eye fatigue and blurred vision. For adults, aim for seven to nine hours of uninterrupted sleep a night for proper resting of your eyes.People who use a computer for an extended period of time oftentimes strain their eyes. One reason why your eyes are tired from the computer is because you forget to blink. Blinking supplies your eyes with tears that lubricate the eye area and wash away debris from the eye surface. Dry eyes from not blinking or excessive wind result in aggravated eyes. During your regular computer time, remind yourself to blink quickly and blink often to keep your eyes from drying out.Any activity which demands a long period of focus from your eyes leads to tired eyes. This includes driving, reading and general computer use. Reading in dim light exacerbates the strain you are putting on your eyes. You must physically give your eyes a rest from time to time to prevent the dry eyes, headaches and blurred vision that can occur. If possible, take frequent breaks, closing your eyes for up to a minute and also focusing on other objects. Corrective lenses serve to compensate for natural or acquired abnormalities in your vision, but those corrective measures change over time. If you wear some sort of corrective lenses, you understand that an outdated prescription leads to blurred vision and general eye fatigue. Corrective lenses can be made especially for computer work; if your livelihood requires that you stare at a monitor, it would be a worthwhile investment to buy glasses just for such activities.Most instances of eye fatigue can be chalked up to simple overuse and easily remedied. Keeping your eyes in good health prevents tired eyes and reduces the headaches and upper body pains that go along with eye fatigue. Blinking, looking away and rest are all you need to keep those eye problems out of sight.New research findings support the advice of generations of moms. Too much near work and not enough sunlight is not just a prescription for a gloomy outlook. It is a prescription for vision problems, especially near-sightedness. Give your eyes a break from the computer and TV screen, especially in a darkened room.(MORE)

Despite what some people may say about it being a dieter's worst enemy, fat is an essential nutrient that your body needs to function. The trick is knowing the difference betw…een good and bad fats, and how to balance your consumption of both. Different fats are vital for different reasons, and even the "unhealthy" fats that diets warn of can offer your body healthful benefits.Fat is a rich energy source for your body, with nine calories in every gram. Calories are what your body converts into energy to function properly. Your body needs these calories to maintain itself. Without calories, your body would turn to digesting its own nutrient reserves to live. If you deprive your body of calories for long enough, it begins to even digest muscle tissue and eventually degrade your organs as a means to survive.Fat helps your body get the most from fat soluble nutrients and vitamins. Nutrients such as vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble. This means that your body needs fat in order to absorb them properly. Vitamin A helps to keep your eyes, mucous membranes, and skin healthy and moist. Vitamin K is good for your bones and helps blood clot normally. Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium, and vitamin E protects your red blood cells.Unsaturated fats are usually referred to as the "good fats," and good fats can actually improve your health. Good fats have been shown to lower cholesterol levels in overweight people and help clean blood vessels clear of deposits and build up. This can improve circulation of oxygen-rich blood to all parts of the body. Unsaturated fats have also been linked to lower risks of heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure.Fat contains more calories than any other nutrient. While this makes it an excellent energy source, it also increases the amount of calories your body must burn to maintain its weight. For every 3,500 unused calories, your body stores them as one pound of body fat. If you eat a diet high in fat and do not find a way to use the excess calories, you will gain weight and increase your risk of obesity.Saturated and trans fats are generally referred to as the "bad fats." Bad fats can clog your blood vessels. Eating too many saturated or trans fats can lead to fatty deposits in your arteries that make it harder for your heart to pump blood to the rest of the body. This can raise your blood pressure to dangerous levels and increase your chances of heart disease. It can also lead to high cholesterol levels.When fat builds up in your vessels, it restricts blood flow to vital organs. Proper blood flow is needed for oxygen-rich blood cells to reach these organs, especially the heart and brain. If your brain can not receive enough oxygen, you may experience chronic fatigue and an increased risk of strokes and even developing Alzheimer's. If your heart can not get the oxygen it needs, you risk cardiogenic shock. This greatly increases your risk of heart attack.Fat doesn't have to be your enemy if you moderate your intake. The American Heart Association recommends that people get anywhere from 25 and 35 percent of their daily calories from fat. Saturated fats in particular should be limited to less than seven percent. Maintaining a balanced intake of these fats is the best way to reap their benefits and limit their risks.Fat is an excellent source of energy and usually comes paired with protein. Protein is essential to maintaining muscle and muscle tissue health, as well as bone health.(MORE)

Wearing contact lenses is a much easier process than it was in the past. Contacts come in a range of types, from extended wear lenses to daily disposable ones. Despite the adv…ancements in contacts in the last few decades, many of us still experience red, irritated eyes when wearing contacts. Fortunately, however, contacts and red eyes need not be a regular state of affairs for you. There are certain steps you can take to eliminate irritants that may be affecting the health of your eyes and, if problems persist, changes you can make to your contacts and cleaning accessories that can help reduce or eliminate redness in the eye. As a first step, you should determine whether you are wearing your contact lenses for the recommended period of time associated with that type of lens. Extended wear contacts can be left in overnight and for days on end, but most contacts must be removed and cleaned daily. If you wear extended wear contacts and still experience redness and irritation during long wear, you may need to consider switching to a short-term lens. Any contact that is not disposable must be cleaned regularly and well. While cleaning methods can vary from brand to brand and lens to lens, the following steps cover a basic protocol for cleaning most contact lenses:*a) Prepping Your HandsWash your hands thoroughly before beginning the cleaning process.*b) Cleaning the LensRemove one lens and place it in the palm of one hand. Squeeze cleaning solution into that palm and rub the lens thoroughly. Although some lenses are "no rub" lenses, the Federal Drug Administration actually recommends rubbing all contact lenses thoroughly. *c) Rinsing the LensRinse the lens carefully, making sure that you follow the instructions on your rinsing product carefully.*d) Storing the LensPlace the cleaned lens in a clean storage case and fill it with new solution. Do not recycle solution from one cleaning cycle to the next.Not sleeping well or enough can tire out the eyes and exacerbate redness and discomfort. Before undertaking any additional remedies that involve switching lenses or solutions, make sure that you are getting enough sleep and that your red eyes are not related to lack of sleep. Not all eyes are created equal. Some individuals have irregular shapes to their eyes that can actually prove hard to fit with a lens. If you are experiencing irritation and are aware that you may have "hard-to-fit" eyes, consult with your optometrist about finding a better fit in your lens.If you do not have a hard-to-fit eye and already practice good hygiene with your lenses, you may need to look into the type of lens you wear. Soft lenses can often leach moisture out of the eye. Consult with your optometrist about switching to a lens type that is designed to keep the eye moist during wear, such as a silicone hydrogel lens. You should also speak with your optometrist about prescribing rewetting drops for your eyes. Used regularly, these drops stabilize the delicate moisture balance of the eye. Helping to keep the eye well-moistened can eliminate a good amount of the irritation that might be exacerbating your red eye. The average person blinks anywhere from two to fifty times a minute. If you feel that dryness is exacerbating redness in the eye, make a conscious effort to blink more frequently than you do normally. Every time you blink it works to restore the moisture balance of the eye. Making this a regular practice can accomplish the work of rewetting drops naturally. If you follow all of these steps and are still experiencing red eyes when wearing contacts, you may want to look into whether or not you have an eye allergy. Speak with your optometrist about your concerns and see what diagnostic tips he or she recommends for assessing potential eye allergies. If you do end up having eye allergies, consider switching to a daily wear, disposable lens. Disposable lenses avoid the build-up of allergens that can irritate the eye. Wearing a fresh pair of lenses every day can greatly ameliorate the level of irritation experienced when wearing contacts. As a final solution, you may want to consider a preservative-free solution for cleaning lenses, if you stick with non-disposable lenses. Some contact wearers are, in fact, allergic to the preservatives in solutions. These chemicals can cause redness and irritation that would otherwise not be present. The constant irritation and unattractive look of redness in the eye does not need to be a constant when wearing contacts. If you are experiencing red eye, follow these systematic steps to eliminate irritants and allergens. Begin by assessing your sleep and hygiene habits, and then determine if your lens type is right for you. If you take all of these steps and are still experiencing red eyes and irritation, speak with a professional about assessing possible allergies and finding allergen-free contact solutions. In no time at all, you should be back on the road to clear, pain-free vision and able to enjoy contacts without dryness, irritation, and red eyes. 30 to 50 percent of U.S. adults experience allergy symptoms and 75 percent of these symptoms directly affect the health and comfort of the eyes.(MORE)

Have you ever felt a strain behind your eyes? Just like every other part of your body, your eyes have muscles that need proper exercise and care. Luckily, for every muscle, th…ere's a yoga exercise that will help it. These simple movements can reduce the strain on your eyes, preserve your vision, and even help improve it.Before you begin any yoga exercises, make sure you are in a comfortable, relaxed position. * a) Sit cross-legged, with your hands resting on your knees. Use a yoga mat, blanket, or cushion to provide support while you sit. * b) Take several deep breaths, exhaling and inhaling slowly. During this time, clear your mind and relax your shoulders.This first exercise will relax your eyes and prepare them for the strain caused by stretching. Do not attempt to do any stretching exercises until you have rested your eyes, as you can end up hurting your ocular muscles. * a) Rub your hands together quickly for about 30 seconds. The friction will warm your skin. * b) Close your eyes and cup your hands over them. Rest your eyes in this warm, dark environment for a full minute, or until your hands cool. * c) Repeat this process three times, or until your eyes feel completely relaxed.This next exercise will strengthen your eye muscles and help their range of movement. Go slowly, and don't push your eyes too hard. * a) Hold your fists out with each thumb pointing upward. Your arms should be at shoulder level and bent upward at the elbow. * b) Focus your eyes straight ahead and inhale slowly. * c) Look towards your left thumb for three seconds, exhaling slowly. * d) Return your eyes to the center for three seconds and inhale. * e) Look towards your right thumb for three seconds and exhale. * f) Repeat this exercise 10 times, or until you feel your eyes start to tire.Now that you've stretched your eyes from side to side, it's time to work their entire rotation. Remember to go slowly; you will get greater benefits from holding each position. * a) Inhale and look upward for three seconds. * b) Exhale and look to your left for three seconds. * c) Inhale and look down for three seconds. * d) Exhale and look right for three seconds. * e) Repeat this exercise five times, and then rotate in the other direction five more times.This exercise is more relaxing on your muscles and will help both your distance and near vision. You can remain sitting or stand near a window where you can see the horizon. * a) Focus your eyes on your nose for roughly six seconds. Inhale and exhale once during this time. * b) Now focus on an object in the distance for another six seconds, also inhaling and exhaling. * c) Repeat this 10 times. Remember to maintain your breathing the entire time.At this point, you should start relaxing your eyes a little more. This next exercise will increase blood flow, but it isn't as strenuous as the previous exercises. * a) Blink rapidly about 10 times. * b) Close your eyes for 20 seconds and relax your eyes. Breathe slowly in and out. * c) Repeat this five to 10 times, maintaining a regular breathing pattern during the entire process.Now that you are done exercising your eyes, it's time to wind them down again. Just like any other kind of exercising, proper cooldowns ensure that you won't strain or injure your muscles. * a) Repeat the palming exercise three times to rest your eyes. This will help reduce any stress on the eye muscles from the exercises you previously performed. * b) Lie on your back with your hands at your sides and close your eyes. Breathe slowly in and out for at least five minutes, allowing your entire body to relax.As your eyes become stronger, you can include extra repetitions of these yoga exercises for your eyes. Include them at the start or end of your yoga routine, or simply use the exercises before bed. If you take the time to work and strengthen your ocular muscles, you will start to notice your vision getting better. As long as you keep up a steady routine, you can maintain good eyesight for years to come.You can use the palming exercise to take stress off of your eyes throughout the workday. If you've been staring at a screen all day, resting your eyes for a few brief moments every time you take a break will help you avoid headaches and loss of vision.(MORE)
